And his destination could be the Hawthorns, according to bookmakers Sky Bet.

The frontman has been linked with a move away from the Hornets, with a number of clubs reportedly interested in signing him. Watford are, apparently, prepared to let him leave this month and Newcastle United were the early frontrunners for his signature.

However, if the bookies are to be believed, it is West Brom who could snare the 29-year-old.

The Baggies are in need of someone to score the goals to get them out of relegation trouble, and new boss Alan Pardew is a keen admirer, having tried to sign the striker while he was manager of Crystal Palace.

And West Brom are now odds-on at 8/13 to take Deeney to the Hawthorns during the January transfer window.

There is little in the market between Deeney going to West Brom and staying at the Vic, with Sky Bet offering 4/7 that he stays with Marco Silva's side.

Deeney returned to the side after a four-match ban and scored in the 3-0 FA Cup win over Bristol City on Saturday.
